    People should pay for the infrastructure that they use. Why should everyone else in NSW pay for it? Typical Labor economic illiteracy.https://twitter.com/Luke_FoleyNSW/status/905649537900888065 …

        If that logic applied to everything then rural areas would likely have only dirt tracks soon. There's a point where sharing cost helps all

        You love regressive taxation don't you Bernard. Real economists know that the tolls force up wages in the city with damaging consequences.
